No, no. Not NaBloPoMo, today it’s finally over.
Today is the day I quit smoking, again. I picked it back up over the summer but I always intended to quit again before winter, since I smoke outside. But a couple weeks ago I got bronchitis. Back in the 90s, I went through several years of chronic bronchitis that I was in total denial that it could be related to my smoking. Still, I haven’t had bronchitis once since I quit back then. So, I’m thinking it’s a good time to throw in the towel. It’s getting cold and I really hate having bronchitis.
I’m afraid I’m being a bit overly dramatic with it. “Oh…this is my last morning cigarette!” Part of me really does not want to quit. I like smoking! But after the first few days it won’t be that bad. It’s not like I’m a heavy smoker. Maybe, maybe someday I can go back to having the occasional smoke. I guess we’ll see about that.
Today is also the day to get back on track diet-wise. While being sick and then the holiday, I’ve slipped off my plan. I hate to go weigh today though for the most part, I don’t think I’ve been in the weight-gain area of off my plan, mostly just in the no-weight-loss area. Still, I need to see that in real numbers.
Big day, eh?
And goodbye NaBloPoMo. Remind me not to do this again next year.

Congratulations on the decision to become a non-smoker, Zazzy!
It was you, I think, that found that
smilie! Or at least brought it to my attention. I haven’t added new smilies to my smilie site in ages. I tried to make most of these have a similar smilie when I go back to the regular set….. but some just don’t translate. Does anyone but me notice these things?
And stopping smoking…. For a few days I’ll have a few last cigarettes. I can never decide whether that is better than cold turkey or not but it’s what is happening. At least since I found that misplaced pack.
